Wow. Another amazing one, Prantik. It's the same feeling I had about your Eiffel Tower shot. You are going to be able to do your own "See them for the first time" tour of Parisian marvels. Brilliant. Best, -Hugh

I just LOVE it! Amazing photo. A creative way to show this so known statue. Bravo!

Bonjour,
Quelle magnifique image, avec ses trois regards dans trois directions différentes! Les trois sujets sont aussi chacun dans un tout petit carré de lumière, très délimité! Du grand art!
Bravo!
Bonne journée

Hi Pantrik,
Fantastic image. The light hitting the three subjects perfectly located in diagonal is superb. Man and woman in their own thoughts, ignoring the presence of the “wonder”. Excellent work.

It's great how u aligned the tree figures and the light is falling exactly illuminating them.
U've created an art out of art itself.

guess luko would mention the number 3 magic..
gives a stage like feeling with the 3 characters looking in different directions
very nice the bar shadows on the front character

Wow, WOW!! Is this shot staged? If not fantastic timing and capture. The despicable note keeps one guessing.

Hi Pratnik,
The real Venus, and a less appealing, fake one, thoughtfull, but still in heavy garments, fill up the scene, and make the poor guy in the BG doubtful, as they make us, the beholders. Stunning use of the light and place.
Congrats,
Deniz

The photo of unexceptional beauty and of great meaning I think. The strange relation is going in-between the man and the girl... with that famous and timeless beauty amongst them. Great scene and great realisation. Congratulations and greetings T.

Marvelous simply marvelous Prantik..thanks to a reference I checked in and it IS truly great...you r Kolkata shot got me rolling...the earlier Paris shot is equally good..but this one just makes your eyes roll over its content over and over again...the excellent use of light and the mood it evokes, the gestures captured, simply terrific work ....

I have been directed to this photo by Luko. A fantastic image. It speaks well in compositional terms, and also tells a story. A brilliant statement. A favorite!

What more can one say ? This is great art. The relation between the different elements is remarkably put in place. Superb piece of work, hats off.

Hello Prantik
Really amazing scene particularly by the creation of this imaginary diagonal lign which unites all three subjects in your photo
really well done. This is a photo I would have liked to do myself!!
Regards
Daniel

Hi Prantik,

Realy amazing the use of light here! The tree figures perfect aligned in the spot create a original composition. The mood is also great. A picture to be seem again and again...
